Unionists are protesting Thursday, at the Transport Ministry headquarters, against the lack of collective labor contracts at state-owned railway operator CFR SA, railway freight carrier CFR Marfa and passenger railway carrier CFR Calatori SA and are demanding a 10% increase in wages and the granting of meal and vacation vouchers.
Unionists met Thursday with representatives of CFR SA, CFR Marfa, CFR Calatori SA and with Transport Ministry officials.
Unionists also demand that vacation vouchers for employees be included in the future collective labor contracts, starting January 1, 2016, and that these contracts be completed until the end of September 2015 at the latest.
Management officials of CFR, CFR Marfa and CFR Calatori said they are open to unionists’ demands and were tasked by the Transport Ministry to come up with concrete propositions by September 10, 2015.
